Uniforms
The students at Nativity School wear a uniform to school each day which essentially is directed by the following guidelines*:
- Our girls have a choice: the school plaid jumper (K-5)/ skirt
(6-8) or navy blue shorts or pants and a white collared or turtle
neck shirt or blouse
- Our boys must wear: the royal blue uniform shirt with navy
blue shorts or pants.
Our Home
and School Association also sells a sweatshirt that may be
worn as part of the uniform. They also offer other spiritwear items
to show our pride in the Nativity School Community.
The purpose of having a uniform is to bring unity to our school community and it also provides our students with an identity in the broader community.
- A copy of the complete uniform policy and general appearance
regulations is below.
- The uniform can be purchased at Donald's Department Store at
972 Payne Ave. ,(651) 776-2723
